MountainWHAT'S A CLIMB TEAM?

Climb Teams are weekly online accountability and recovery groups for Christian men who are serious about healing past wounds and overcoming porn and sexual strongholds.


The opposite of addiction isn’t just sobriety—it’s connection.


Connection with God. Connection with like-minded brothers in Christ.


Climb Teams are a safe space where you’ll find biblical truth, real encouragement, honest accountability, and the brotherhood you need to walk in freedom and grow into the man God destined you to be.


_______


HOW DO CLIMB TEAMS WORK?


Each Climb Team meets once a week via Zoom for 60–70 minutes.


Meetings are led by a trained team leader and made up of no more than 10 men—so things stay real, personal, and manageable.


Here’s what to expect:


You’ll receive a meeting agenda by email before each session.


Every meeting starts with prayer and a short word of encouragement from Scripture or our recovery workbook.


Each man gets about 5 minutes to respond to weekly check-in questions.


After sharing, you’ll be prayed over and encouraged by your brothers.


You’ll be given weekly action steps—not just talk, but truth that leads to growth.


Daily connection continues in a private Signal group chat—for check-ins, prayer, and support throughout the week.


You’ll also get a weekly email from Jason (The Belay) packed with encouragement, updates, resources, and helpful links.


You can message your team leader 24/7 and expect a reply within 24 hours.


As part of your healing journey, we’ll work through biblically grounded recovery workbooks together—because freedom comes through truth and action.

THIS IS A BROTHERHOOD


When you join a Climb Team, you’re not just another name on a screen.


You’ll be known, accepted, loved, guided, encouraged, challenged, held accountable, and prayed for.


This climb is not easy—and that's why you must climb with your brothers.


We’re committed to 100% confidentiality. This is a safe place to be raw and real. Because all progress begins with truth.

lock  Membership Commitments

To be part of a Climb Team—and get the full benefit—you need to understand and commit to a few key expectations. This isn’t just a group. It’s a brotherhood, and brotherhood comes with responsibility.


1. Show up and be on time for your weekly meeting (60–70 minutes).


There’s a part of you that wants to grow—and a part that wants to stay comfortable. Commit to showing up every week, no matter how you feel.

Your presence matters—not just for you, but for your team, your marriage, your family, and your future.

Block the time. Set a reminder. Make it non-negotiable. It’s one hour out of 168 in your week. 

No excuses. Let’s go!


2. No judgment. No condemnation.

This is a safe place. Men will be sharing the rawest, darkest parts of their story. You’re not here to fix anyone—you’re here to listen, pray, and encourage.

Slips and stumbles will happen. That’s part of the climb. What matters is that we grow through it together.

3. Pay attention when others are sharing. No multitasking. No distractions.

When someone is opening up, they deserve your full attention. Don’t be the guy checking email or scrolling social while a brother is pouring out his heart.

Stay present. Look at the screen. Listen. Learn. Pray.

We’re here to grow together—not just talk about ourselves and tune out the rest.

(Yes—encouraging messages in the Zoom chat are welcome. But don’t try to teach or correct. Just be a brother.)

4. What’s said in the meeting stays in the meeting. 100% confidentiality is expected.

This is sacred ground.

Don’t share what others say with anyone—not even your wife. Keep the Signal chat protected by password or facial recognition. If you violate confidentiality, you’ll be removed from the team.

5. Be careful how you describe your struggles.

When sharing, keep it honest but not graphic.
For example:

“I looked at porn on my phone and masturbated.”
That’s truthful—and that’s enough. Don’t go into explicit details that could cause others to stumble.

6. Be honest. Be real.

If you’re not going to be truthful, this isn’t going to work. No one expects perfection—we just expect honesty.

If you slipped, edged, or relapsed—say it. We’ve all been there. There’s no shame in this circle. But there’s no B.S. either.

All healing starts with the truth.

7. Stay within the theological framework.

We align theologically with The Gospel Coalition. You don’t have to agree with every point, but this isn’t the place to debate doctrine or push different views.

8. No drama on social media.

If you have a problem with a leader or team member, bring it up directly and respectfully. Don’t take it to Facebook or a blog post.

If things can’t be resolved, we’ll part ways with grace.

9. Pray for your brothers throughout the week.

This is one of the most powerful tools in your recovery. Seriously—pray for your team.
Text a teammate. Hop on a quick call. Speak life into each other. It matters.

10. Stay connected throughout the week via Signal.

Freedom comes through daily connection. Don’t just show up for the weekly Zoom.

Use the Signal group for check-ins, support, encouragement, and just life stuff.

If you’re struggling—speak up. If someone else is—show up.

And don’t be afraid to post hikes, meals, jokes, workouts, memes, or even trash talk your team’s football rivals.

We’re brothers doing life together, not just recovery.

11. Do the work.

Your Climb Team isn’t a confession booth. It’s a place for growth.

That means working through your assigned recovery material, applying truth, and making hard changes.

This isn’t about perfection—it’s about process and progress.

“It’s okay to not be okay, but it’s not okay to stay that way.”

To become who you’ve never been, you’ll have to do what you’ve never done.

If your team leader pushes you—it’s because he loves you. Lean in.

This is your climb. Your calling. Your breakthrough.

Let's go!

Question Circle FAQ

What are the benefits of joining a Climb Team?


The biggest benefit? You stop climbing alone.

When you join a Climb Team, you become part of a brotherhood—a group of like-minded Christian men who’ve got your back whether you’re winning or struggling.

It’s a safe place to be real about your past, your present, and your pain. You’ll be fully accepted, but also lovingly challenged to grow. Together, we learn, we heal, and we rise.

“As iron sharpens iron, so one man sharpens another.” – Proverbs 27:17


_______


Will the meetings be Bible studies or a topic-based discussion?

The main focus of our meetings is simple: YOU.

Climb Team meetings are not Bible studies, but each one begins with prayer and a short word of truth from Scripture or our recovery workbook. The Bible guides everything we do.

You’ll answer check-in questions, get support, and be prayed over.


Each guy is also expected to be personally digging into God’s Word throughout the week.

We’re here to grow in faith, not just talk about it.


________


What if I'm already involved in a men's group?

  • If you’re already part of a high-accountability men’s group that…
  • Asks tough personal questions
  • Checks in with you during the week
  • Encourages and equips you spiritually, emotionally, and physically
  • Prays for you and provides solid biblical guidance

…then stick with it. That’s your Climb Team already. Stay plugged in and keep climbing.


_______


Why should I join a Climb Team if I already have Covenant Eyes?


Covenant Eyes is a great tool for safeguarding your devices, but it’s just one of many tools you need.

You need real conversations, encouragement, and prayer with your brothers.


You also need biblical guidance from your team leader.


Freedom comes through connection—talking, listening, praying, learning, and growing together.


_______


How do you define "sexual sobriety"?


We define sexual sobriety as abstaining from:

  • Porn (internet or physical media)
  • Erotic images or content of any kind
  • Sexting or sending/receiving explicit photos
  • Phone sex, chat rooms, cybersex
  • Strip clubs, erotic massages, or prostitution
  • Premarital sex or adultery

Sexual purity is the ideal.
Sexual sobriety is the standard.
We hold each other to it—and walk with grace when one of us falls.


_______


How do you define "adultery" and "fornication"?


Simple rule of thumb:

If you can’t do it in front of your wife, it’s adultery.
If you can’t do it with your girlfriend in the middle of church, it’s off-limits.


_______


What is "edging”?


We define edging as looking at, listening to, or doing things that aren't technically "porn" or "adultery" or "fornication" - but it sexually arouses you. Edging will eventually lead to a relapse.


_______


Why does it cost money if this is a non-profit ministry?


Ministry takes money.
This isn’t a hobby—it’s a mission.

We can’t operate for free. Your team leader puts in serious time preparing, leading meetings, providing support, and sending resources.

Think of the $50/month membership as an investment in your freedom, your future, your family, and your walk with God.


That’s just $12.50 per week—most guys spend more than that at Chick-fil-A.

“Where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.” – Matthew 6:21

We do offer financial assistance to eligible applicants. Just ask.

quote-left  I learned about Climb Teams from listening to The GRIZ Podcast. Although I have found traditional 12-step programs to be helpful in achieving many years of sobriety from drug and alcohol addiction, I have found pornography addiction to be extremely difficult to escape. The Climb Team concept of recovery with a close group of men in a faith-based setting seemed appealing, so I gave it a shot. I recently have been able to achieve 90-days sobriety from sexual sin! More than that, I have found a close band of brothers who are open and honest about our struggles and meet regularly to help us stay clean. Jason is a skilled and compassionate team leader who runs a no BS group that is solidly steeped in biblical principles. I look forward to future growth in recovery, along with improvements in my marriage and increased vitality in my faith. I truly thank God for placing this program in front of me. - M.


quote-left I was skeptical about airing out my dirty laundry. I hate admitting that I have a problem that I can not overcome on my own. I tried and failed over and over. I found myself in periods of sobriety and then out of nowhere I would fall off the wagon. I have found that confessing my weakness to other brothers and having an actual climbing plan is the pathway to overcoming sexual sin (or any sin for that matter). My Climb Team has helped me achieve 6 months and counting of porn-free living. If you are willing to be open and honest ... and legitimately combat sin with a group of guys who struggle just like you, then you are ready to join a Climb Team. My Climb Team has helped me experience guilt-free living, clarity of mind, and a deep brotherhood. There is probably more at stake than you realize. It’s worth the investment! Stop trying to climb alone! - J.


quote-left A Climb Team was just the thing I needed. I needed a community of brothers climbing the same trail, fighting the same fight. Since joining up with my Climb Team, I've found support, encouragement, truth and true accountability. We have a safe space to share our struggles, confess our failures, and walk out our biblical command to bear our brothers sins and burdens. I look forward to what the future holds. - B.


quote-left My Climb Team with Jason George has been a huge blessing to me . My porn / unwanted sexual behaviors (sin chains) have been broken, and my Climb Team has been a valuable tool. Trying to do it alone or just with an "accountability partner" is not enough support to overcome your addiction. You need a group of Christian men who struggle with the same challenges and climb with you. - R.


quote-left I've been battling the grips of porn for as long as I can remember, and for years I lived in shame and isolation with the mindset that if I tried hard enough I could overcome it on my own. But I learned that I couldn't do it on my own, I needed the fellowship of like-minded brothers that share in the same struggles that I struggle with, and understand how difficult it is to stop looking at porn. Climb Teams are a safe place where you can be totally honest with your struggles and will NEVER be shamed or condemned. It's a group of men that will love you, pray for you, and support you no matter where you're at on your journey. At times you'll be lovingly challenged and pushed to become the godly men we all want to become. I can't put into words how much my Climb Team has helped me and I know it can help you too. - T.


quote-left After battling porn addiction for many years, the Climb Team was something that really assisted in helping me maintain my integrity. It also strengthened my faith by providing fellowship and the word of God. I can honestly say it has been an awesome blessing in my life. - M.


quote-left I've been blessed to be a member of a Climb Team - a men's accountability group done right. In 2.5 decades, I've never fully understood, nor seen how to do it like this. Now I'm learning what 'right' looks like and how to be 'iron sharpening iron.' We share our weaknesses, lessons, best practices, and our triumphs. We pray for and uplift each other without judging, and spur one another on towards love and good deeds. This applies not just to typical moral purity issues, but also extends to physical, mental, and emotional health. We engage relevant Scriptures, ask good questions, and learn together in a power-packed weekly meeting over Zoom. It helps me to be virtual  because it goes with me when I travel, which is often. We have bonded quickly even though most of us did not know each other before we started. You owe it to yourself, your family (future spouse/family), and God to take advantage of and contribute to others through participation in a Climb Team. - B.


quote-left Climb Teams have been life-changing!  I’ve tried so many ways to stop my addiction to pornography before and never gained any traction. Today, I am less than 30 days away from being 1-year porn-free, thanks to my Climb Team. Climb Teams are not just another accountability group but a group of men sharpening each other to lead a life centered on Christ and the Gospel truth. My relationships with my wife, kid, and Christ have all improved due to the relationships I’ve gained within Climb Teams. If you want to take a lasting step in the right direction, I highly recommend joining a Climb Team today. - T.


quote-left Since I have joined Climb Teams I have been able to connect with a group of men who support and hold me accountable in my walk with God. I have made leaps and bounds over my sexual sin that once controlled my life and was hindering my connection with God. Although I fought sexual sin in the past, I was never successful. With Climb Teams I found the need and importance of doing this together with brothers in Christ. I wasn’t able to do this alone. Yes, I still fight temptation and my fleshly desires. I haven’t done this perfectly, but I would not be able to make the progress I've made on my own. I have also found a purpose and it’s not just to fight sexual sin but to be a better husband, father, leader, and to ultimately share the gospel with those who are lost. I was always covered with guilt, shame, and the weight of my sin when I was battling alone, but my Climb Team has given me consistent guidance, connection, support, and accountability. I no longer carry the guilt, shame, and weight of my habitual sin. Climb Teams have changed my life and my family's lives. - E.


quote-left My Climb Team has been fundamental to my progress in my pursuit of sexual purity/sobriety. My pursuit has not been perfect since joining Climb Teams but having a coach and brothers in the pursuit with me to help set you straight and pick you up when you are veering off course has been so beneficial to my life. I don't want to know where I would be without it. Checking in weekly, learning how to do life without lust/porn, and forming relationships with other Climb Team members has helped me tremendously in gaining momentum in this difficult pursuit. I thank God for Jason and the Climb Team members. They are a huge encouragement to me and are a huge blessing. They are helping me become the husband and father I need to be and I can't recommend Climb Teams enough for Christian guys who are stuck in sexual sin! - W.


quote-left Having been involved with my Climb Team for almost two years, I can see many improvements in both my marriage and faith journey. I am able to enjoy a closer relationship with my wife without the guilt and shame of hiding sexual sin. I am likewise able to pray and worship without hindrance, as I've learned many tools of recovery from the group. Best of all, the relationships I've developed in the Climb Team have been supportive and enriching. I'm grateful that I took the leap of faith to join! - M.


quote-left I am a 45 year old pastor who began struggling with pornography when I was 11 years old. Over the years I made many different attempts at getting sober, but the greatest success that I have had has been since I have joined Climb Teams. The combination of daily check ins, weekly accountability meetings and regularly reading books on purity have been extremely effective at helping me maintain my sobriety and move toward greater degrees of freedom. Jason is extremely effective at pastoring addicts -  combining a compassionate heart with a healthy amount of positive confrontation and challenge. I recommend Climb Teams to anyone serious about walking in sexual purity. The money invested is well worth it. - K.


quote-left Climb teams has meant a lot to me. I have only been part of the group for about 5 months, but in the time I have been active, the group has been a critical part of my recovery. Knowing the support and encouragement of the group has helped me continue to practice and learn new tools to elevate my recovery. It hasn’t always been easy in recovery, the guys help keep me accountable even if I don’t always want it. Yet, it is that accountability and camaraderie that makes climb teams so important. The guys encourage you but they don’t let you slack off either. They push you because they know that you are able to be the best man God has created you to be. That is the power of climb teams. Knowing that God is elevated, but that you are able to be pushed to be the best man possible. I am grateful for the connection of climb teams and the time we check-in and connect has meant a lot to me. - A.


quote-left My Experience so far in climb teams ministry has been wonderful. I can't think Jason and the team enough for allowing me into the team.  I've been able to achieve a much longer period of sobriety than I have been able to for years.  I am currently just shy of 9 months sobriety from porn.  Without the climb team I was white knuckling it and constantly failing over and over again.  I would get a few days to about a month and then would slip up again.  I feel more confident and I am moving in a better direction now.  I'll continue with the team as I need the accountability from the guys and it helps me to feel like I'm in the game as opposed to just being on the sidelines.  Thank you Jason! - D.


quote-left I’ve been in and out of recovery for a few years.  Sexual sins have persisted in my life for nearly 3 decades.  I’m thankful that Jason George through his ministry established an effective program based on a deep understanding of the battle that many men face, but are too afraid to admit.  But there comes a time for each of us that we must admit we cannot overcome this addiction solo. Sometimes the only way to climb out of the bottom is to start looking up!  Since I’ve been in climb teams, I’ve developed relationships with people that both encourage and push me upward.  With a foundation of biblical principles,  climb teams provide the necessary tools and community to break free from the strongholds and idols that hold us back from the abundant life that God has for us all.  I’m truly thankful for this ministry. - A.
